Day 2 - Bangkok

Get ready for a night on Sukhumvit Soi 11. Lots going on here. This evening put on some nicer clothes and get prepared to see the hi-so crowd in a cool club a modest walk down the soi from Sukhumvit Road. Drinks don't come cheap so some may prefer to liquor up a bit beforehand with some budget booze prices at the outdoor and quirky Cheap Charlie's.

Day 5 - Bangkok

Getting high in Bangkok means heading up to some of the swank rooftop bars and restaurants. Sirocco is arguably the best view with the Chao Phraya snaking its way north from there. But it is standing room only a more of a stop for one and go experience. Red Sky is downtown overlooking Central World. Though its view isn't quite as good, it's close. Drinks are cheaper, bar snacks come to the table, and there is much more casual seating. Neither, however, is taking flip flops and shorts.

Day 6 - Bangkok

Thong Lor anyone? A number of pubs and clubs line up on this popular street (Sukhumvit Soi 55) and you can take a Skytrain to the station of the same name to arrive at the start of it. Soul Food is a great place for a reasonably priced but delicious meal, and the amazing cocktails aren't going to break the bank. Stop in at Witch's then for some live tunes and finish it off with what sometimes feels like a private Thai party at Tease Gallery.

Day 7 - Bangkok

Thai food in a German brewhouse. Can't pass that up. Cross your fingers for some Thai Michael Jackson stage production. The beer's great; the entertainment is... interesting. Thais love this place and sing along. Finish off the night at Saxophone with some groovy live music.
